Fix/Rewrite of the mipsnet driver]
This is Thiemo's patch. ----- Forwarded message from Thiemo Seufer <ths@networkno.de> ----- From: Thiemo Seufer <ths@networkno.de> Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2007 22:29:13 +0000 To: netdev@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org, ralf@linux-mips.org Subject: [PATCH, REPOST] Fix/Rewrite of the mipsnet driver Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hello All, currently the mipsnet driver fails after transmitting a number of packages because SKBs are allocated but never freed. I fixed that and coudn't refrain from removing the most egregious warts. - mipsnet.h folded into mipsnet.c, as it doesn't provide any useful external interface. - Free SKB after transmission. - Call free_irq in mipsnet_close, to balance the request_irq in mipsnet_open. - Removed duplicate read of rxDataCount. - Some identifiers are now less verbose. - Removed dead and/or unnecessarily complex code. - Code formatting fixes. Tested on Qemu's mipssim emulation, with this patch it can boot a Debian NFSroot.
